Push-ups are one of the most effective full-body exercises you can do – no equipment needed, just your body weight and a bit of motivation. Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to challenge yourself, this classic move helps build strength in your chest, shoulders, arms, and core.

This month, our instructor is here to show you three variations of the push-up – from beginner to advanced – so you can build up at your own pace.

Level 1: Incline Push-Up (Beginner)

Hands on a step or bench. Reduces pressure on the upper body – great for building strength and confidence.

Tip: Keep your body in a straight line and engage your core.

Level 2: Standard Push-Up (Intermediate)

Classic push-up from the floor. A great full-body challenge.

Tip: Elbows close to your sides and avoid letting your hips sag.

Level 3: Decline Push-Up (Advanced)

Feet on a step, hands on the floor. Increases resistance and targets upper chest and shoulders.

Tip: Stay controlled and keep your core tight throughout.

Start with the level that suits you and aim to build up over time. A few reps a day can lead to big results!
